Knab statements to OFX: what you get

This .ofx file carries the reconciled Knab transactions in standard OFX structure — the format to choose when your software's import menu lists OFX, QFX or 'bank statement file' rather than CSV.

The main use is desktop accounting and personal-finance software that imports OFX or QFX. Statements from Netherlands banks print dates as day/month/year, often written day.month.year — 03.04.2026 means 3 April 2026 and amounts with points or spaces for thousands and a comma for decimals (1.234,56) — the converter's locale-aware reader handles that layout, and then the reconciliation check proves the result: the extracted transactions must add up to the balances printed on the statement itself, or the conversion is flagged.

The check itself is simple arithmetic, applied without exception: add the opening balance to every extracted transaction and compare the result with the closing balance printed on the Knab statement, then walk the running balances row by row. Agreement to the cent means the extraction matches the document. Disagreement means the conversion is flagged — the result says so plainly, with the differing rows marked.

Two habits make Knab statements easier to work with. First, convert the issued PDF rather than a portal screen print — print views paginate differently and can drop the balance lines the check needs. Second, glance at the statement's own subtotals before converting: section totals for deposits, withdrawals and fees are free checkpoints that tell you where a flagged difference is likely to live.

In Netherlands, bookkeepers commonly work in Exact Online and Moneybird; the Excel and CSV exports from this converter are the files those tools import, and the Xero export is laid out for direct import where the tool accepts it.

Catching up a year of Knab books

Download all twelve periods first and convert them as one batch, then work through the reconciliation results month by month in order. Fix flagged months before importing anything: it is far easier to resolve a difference against twelve tidy statements than inside a year of mixed postings.

Before you use the file

Keep the statement PDF with the OFX file. OFX is a transport format, not a document — when a transaction is questioned later, the PDF is what proves what the bank actually printed.

How to download a statement PDF from Knab

  1. Sign in and open the right account. Use the bank's website or mobile app and sign in with your usual credentials.
  2. Pick the account and the month. Most banks file statements under the account's Documents, Statements or eStatements tab rather than on the summary screen.
  3. Work month by month. Pick the month (or months) you need. For catch-up bookkeeping, download each month as its own PDF.
  4. Download or print to PDF. Use the Download / Download PDF option. If only a print view is offered, print the statement to PDF from the browser.
  5. Run the conversion here. Upload the PDF above and check the reconciliation result before you download the converted file.

These are the general steps most banks follow for statement downloads; exact menu labels vary by bank and change over time.

Tip: if the bank offers both a statement PDF and a transaction-list PDF, take the statement — it is the one carrying the balances the reconciliation check needs.

Questions and answers

How do I convert a Knab statement to OFX?

Get the PDF from Knab's statements area, upload it here, and download the converted an OFX-formatted export of the statement's transactions. The converter reads the transactions, standardizes the columns and verifies the totals against the statement before the file is ready.

What date and number formats do Knab statements use?

Like most banks in Netherlands, Knab prints dates as day/month/year, often written day.month.year — 03.04.2026 means 3 April 2026 and amounts with points or spaces for thousands and a comma for decimals (1.234,56). Conversion normalizes dates to an unambiguous form in the output while leaving the figures themselves untouched.

What does the reconciliation check do?

Where the statement prints opening and closing (or running) balances, the converter adds up the extracted transactions and compares the result with the statement itself. If the numbers do not tie, the conversion is flagged and the mismatched rows are marked — a failed check is never shown as a success.

My Knab statement has a running balance column. Is it used?

Yes — it is one of the strongest checks available. The converter walks the extracted amounts against the printed running balance row by row, so a single dropped or duplicated transaction is pinpointed instead of merely suspected.

What if two Knab statements cover overlapping days?

Convert them separately and import only one version of the overlap. Banks occasionally reissue a corrected statement for a period; the later issue supersedes the earlier, and importing both would double the shared days.

Can I convert a full year of Knab statements at once?

Yes. Download each month as its own PDF and upload them together — batch mode converts them in one run and, in Excel, adds a combined sheet. Each statement is still reconciled separately, because balances are per statement.

Does the converter work with Knab credit-card statements?

Yes. Credit-card statements use a Previous Balance / New Balance layout, which the converter reads as well; purchases are positive and payments are negative, and the same totals check applies.

What columns does the converted file have?

Date, Description, Amount, Debit, Credit and Balance — the same normalized columns for every bank, so a Knab file and a file from any other bank in Netherlands can be imported and reviewed the same way.

Are my statement files kept?

No. Uploaded files and generated exports are stored only briefly to complete the download and are automatically deleted within 15 minutes.
